  • Patent number: 9488530
    Abstract: A time-domain temperature sensing system includes a cyclic delay line, a path selection circuit and a counter. The cyclic delay line includes a plurality of logic components connected. The path selection circuit connects with the cyclic delay line and the counter connects with the path selection circuit. The cyclic delay line is operated to sense and convert a temperature into a time pulse to generate a temperature-related time pulse width signal, and the cyclic delay line is further operated to measure the temperature-related time pulse width signal via the path selection circuit. The cyclic delay line is operated to convert the temperature into the time pulse and the counter is further operated to convert the temperature-related time pulse width signal into a digital signal via the path selection circuit, thereby generating a temperature-to-digital signal.

  • Publication number: 20100265904
    Abstract: A method of providing interference avoidance in uplink CoMP may include generating an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol for uplink transmission to coordinated multi-point (CoMP) cells, and providing a cyclic-prefix and a cyclic-postfix for the OFDM symbol generated to reduce uplink interference without backhaul transmission for delay or timing advance information. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided. An alternative method of providing interference avoidance in uplink CoMP may include measuring timing differences between downlink signals received at a mobile terminal in connection with coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission from a serving cell and one or more coordinating cells and adjusting uplink transmission timing for signals to be transmitted from the mobile terminal based on the timing differences measured. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.
